Honey, I'm hooo-ooooome.

Few things make me feel more desperately relieved than getting back to Boston after too much time away. Silly soy, to fall in love with a place... and thanks to everyone for the sympathetic comments, they did help keep me sane and feeling like my normal life still existed.

We got in at midnight on Friday, slept, and started advertising our apartment Saturday morning... I tromped around in the 0-degree weather putting up posters while HLM put us up on craigslist, then helped clean the place up, and later in the day we took steps to getting listed at the Harvard off-campus housing office and the Tufts off-campus housing office. We'll go to MIT on Monday and do that one in person. So far we have one nibble from craigslist and nothing from the posters, though one poster was missing last night as we passed through Porter Square, so someone must have liked it. (I put up another one there immediately, since I happened to be carrying my postering supplies around anyway. Blue, that little bag you gave me is the perfect size for that!).

The thumb-print is just now coming back in over the area I cut just before Christmas, by the way. That always amazes me--how does it know how to put the print back? I've got some crazy nano-machines gettin' jiggy in there. :)

Well, the nibble is coming over to see the place in a couple of hours and we should do some more cleaning before then. Plus I should be cooking lunch.

More babble about moving, mostly

Do you want to know the latest apartment/condo stuff? ( Sure you do. )

I had a decent workout (legs only, my body refused to do more) and packed up four more boxes' worth of stuff--amazingly, moving day is supposed to be 3 weeks from yesterday, and as we pack we have to keep the place looking nice so we can keep showing it off. We're still so far from done, mostly because HLM hasn't started yet. Yikes. But then, he still has tons of time I won't have.

I may not be posting tomorrow since I'll be catching up from vacation, continuing my attempts to actually focus on work while at work, and meeting a new co-worker (he was supposed to start last Monday, but both bossman and I have been out, so if he started I have no idea what the poor guy's been doing all week). I bought a pretty new sweater yesterday... hmmm, sure, I'll wear it, may as well look nice for the newbie. Now, time for a wee bit of pre-bedtime piano... and then sleep...
